# Indexing by GeoJSON Properties
import plotly.express as px

df = px.data.election()
geojson = px.data.election_geojson()

print(df["district"][2])
print(geojson["features"][0]["properties"])

11-Sault-au-Récollet
{'district': '11-Sault-au-Récollet'}

To use them together, we set locations to district and featureidkey to "properties.district". The color is set to the number of votes by the candidate named Bergeron.

Note In this example we set layout.geo.visible to False to hide the base map and frame, and we set layout.geo.fitbounds to 'locations' to automatically zoom the map to show just the area of interest. See the Geo map configuration documentation for more information on projections and bounds.

import plotly.express as px

df = px.data.election()
geojson = px.data.election_geojson()

fig = px.choropleth(df, geojson=geojson, color="Bergeron",

Discrete Colors

In addition to continuous colors, we can discretely-color our choropleth maps by setting color to a non-numerical column, like the name of the winner of an election.

Note In this example we set layout.geo.visible to False to hide the base map and frame, and we set layout.geo.fitbounds to 'locations' to automatically zoom the map to show just the area of interest. See the Geo map configuration documentation for more information on projections and bounds.

Using Built-in Country and State Geometries

Plotly comes with two built-in geometries which do not require an external GeoJSON file:

USA States Countries as defined in the Natural Earth dataset.

Note and disclaimer: cultural (as opposed to physical) features are by definition subject to change, debate and dispute. Plotly includes data from Natural Earth "as-is" and defers to the Natural Earth policy regarding disputed borders which read:

Natural Earth Vector draws boundaries of countries according to defacto status. We show who actually controls the situation on the ground.

To use the built-in countries geometry, provide locations as three-letter ISO country codes.
